Today is DOOMSDAY for Greece!!

The investigative journalist Costas Vaxevanis was arrested on Sunday and then quickly released after his magazine Hot Doc published on Saturday a list of more than 2,000 names that it claimed was the infamous «Lagarde list» of Greeks with Swiss bank accounts given to Greece by French authorities in 2010 to be probed for tax evasion.

The journalist is to appear in court at noon on Monday when the date of his trial, on charges of violating laws relating to the privacy of personal data, is to be set.

So what is the real situation in Greece from a Greeks point of view ? With the Greek people fold to the banks or what is the long term outlook ? Thanks !

Things are getting harder by the day, taxation has doubled in 3 years and wage-cuts have reached 30%, after the destruction of the low class the last 3 years now it's the time for the destruction of the Greek middle class. Biggest problems are the massive unemployment and the mass sense of misery and hopelessness between the Greek people. Long term outlook doesn't look good, more and more people are getting used to the idea that this can't go on and we will go bust soon, many are asking for it, those who still benefit from the corrupt system don't want something to change. The next bankruptcy is inevitable anyways, numbers don't add up even if we get the first tranche of the 2nd bailout and there is already talk for a 3rd bailout and haircut, it's a mess and it won't get better anytime soon.

Patience pays.. Let the DOOM commence. No time to be running scared only the wicked need be scared. It's your turn barry.. May the true Barry stand up and be seen for what he really is... the son of Satan. All your campaign nonsense posts mean nothing. OBAMA WILL LEAD YOU!! America is DONE!! Destruction comes to you in ways you cannot fathom. May the shills R.I.Pieces.

You realize they are trying to destroy all classes right?To even out the world economies so they are the same?And only have peasants and elites right?So they can install a communist NWO where the elite run the world and the peasants do as they're told.You realize this right?

Tim Geithner's carefully scripted plan to avoid European "reality" until the US election is unraveling. While previously Greece was not supposed to be an issue until after November 6, the recent escalation with the Greek FinMin openly lying about a Troika interim bailout outcome (which may or may not happen, but only following yet another MoU which would see Greece fully transitioning to a German vassal state in exchange for what is now seen as a €30 billion shortfall over the next 4 years, and which would send Syriza soaring in the polls in the process ensuring that a Grexit is merely a matter of time) has forced a retaliation. According to the Greek press, the Troika now demands that Greece resolve its objections to labor reforms (which as reported earlier have forced the ruling coalition to split) by Sunday night, or else...

The implication, it appears, is that absent a compromise, the next Troika tranche of €31.5 billion is not coming, and Greece is out.

Fact EU is funding USA debt. No more Austerity its going down the shitter and we want our old currencies back. EU OUT!!

aye brits will be out the eu even if it goes all the way to next election but then if not beforeeven eu want us out for standing up to them all the time, however they cant afford us out an they know it

Syriza taking power is not doom for Greece, it is doom for the Troika parasites in Greece. When that happens, they'll all have to take a plane ticket, along with their cop minions, to the Netherlands, or something.

its not about Greece. Greece is irrelevant. Its about Spain, and later on Italy.

These counties are in a huge depression, although not immediately apparent, and in NO WAY can things get better.

Its like quicksand, and they sinking. The problem is the EURO, which is a hard currency, and that is absolutely not what the Southern European countries and their economies need. Its what the northern European economies need. I wont go into more detail, but that is undoubtely the case. They are flogging a dead horse.

They are now trying to devalue economies instead of the currency to fix the situation: but that entails a huge cost in terms of social cohesion and order, especially at a time of global recession (a result of too much money creation and asset inflation instead of true productivity. The latter has moved to countries like China and Russia who are really enjoying watching everyone else take it up the ass.

I think the brits are planning on paying for their bar tab with Canada's / Australia's (et al) natural resources. Let's see how that plays out.
